If you’re still confused about Fate/Apocrypha, let us explain it for a bit before going with the servant. The setting of Fate/Apocrypha is a parallel world to Fate/stay night and its prequel Fate/Zero where the Greater Grail was removed from Fuyuki after the Third Holy Grail War and disappeared for many years. The reserve system for the Holy Grail was activated, allowing for the summoning of fourteen Servants in total. If you haven’t read our previous article about Red Servant, you can read it first! Without further ado, let’s get started with the Black Servant!

Siegfried, the Dragon-Blooded Knight.

Chiron, the mentor of Greek heroes

Chiron was notable throughout Greek mythology for his youth-nurturing nature. His personal skills tend to match those of his foster father Apollo, who taught the young centaur the art of medicine, herbs, music, archery, hunting, gymnastics and prophecy, and made him rise above his beastly nature. Peleus brought his son Achilles to Chiron, who received him as a disciple, and fed him on the innards of lions and wild swine, and the marrow of she-wolves.
